I’m wondering how they would expand the parks given the Hogwarts Express bean kind of acts as a border to the parks at the moment. Like, how could they creativity hide the HE in potential new lands?
IOA has an entire unused land (Lost Continent), and arguably half of one (Toon Lagoon). I would hope Universal Creative isn’t going to leave it like that for the next 3-5 years...
While I do agree that it is not as popular as Sesame Street, I feel like Spongebob has made its way into mainstream culture through memes and so on. So while everyone may not have seen it as opposed to Sesame Street, they have heard of it. Spongebob premiered when I was 5, so I grew up watching...
I was about to say the same. I still think Spongebob taking over Toon Lagoon would be a great spot for it, given it would be a Simpsons-level expansion, and would require mostly cosmetic changes. I’m not sure it would fit in the new park since the IP is (sadly) in decline.
